I recently flew to New York LaGuardia and noticed an H&H shop in Delta’s new concourse (it near the gates numbered in the 90s). Was pleased to see it.

Fascinating to learn there was an H&H in Tokyo. Even when in a country like Japan, which has some of the world’s most delicious food, it’s nice to find familiar touchstones. Because sometimes a traveler just needs a bagel and a schmear.

Henry, the pastries at Starbucks in Tokyo were almost exactly like the ones in the US - not in a good way. We joked that they had a commissary in Alaska and flew them in. H&H was far superior.

Happy to hear H&H is back.

There was a shop on the West Side Highway I frequented.

Their salt bagel was perfect!!

That store closed. They used to offer discounts every so often.
